Research Paper and Presentation – Communication Across Teams and Organizations
This assessment aligns with the competency for this module: Students will implement coaching-related communication techniques such as delivering constructive and effective messages, providing and receiving feedback, and incorporating active listening techniques in an educational institution. Specifically, this assessment has two core ways in which knowledge mastery will be demonstrated:
Students will analyze the importance of relationships for coaches to evoke excellence in others.
Students will develop various communication techniques coaches can adopt to improve the relationship with their mentees.
You will show your understanding of the literature and effective communication strategies by developing a paper that demonstrates your ability to research relationship-building, motivational strategies to evoke excellence, and communication techniques. These concepts should be evaluated and applied in an educational context. In addition, you will create a presentation that explains your key findings related to relationship building and displays an ability to demonstrate effective oral, written, and interpersonal communication skills.
For the first deliverable, you will take your draft research paper on communication strategies in an educational context and turn that into a research paper to communicate your understanding of the importance of communication in alignment with organizational leadership. Then, for your second deliverable, you will take your presentation on relationship building and incorporate any edits from feedback that you received from your instructor. As you are completing both deliverables, make sure you apply an academic tone and APA 7th edition formatting.
